Told in an earthy, documentary style, this fraught queer love story is set in the context of migrant workers in a Norwegian canning factory. Robert is a 19-year-old Polish immigrant working in a Norwegian salmon processing plant off the Trøndelag coast in Norway. He has unacknowledged feelings for Norwegian co-worker and aspiring drag queen Ivar but doesn’t want to risk the comradeship of fellow Poles by coming out. When a strike breaks out in the factory, Robert hesitates to join in because of pressure from his debt-ridden mother. Then the factory owner offers him a tantalising deal that could have enormous consequences.
